Classic Pecan Pie 

  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method 

--------  ------------  -------------------------------- 

   1      cup           Dark Corn Syrup
  3                    eggs 

    1  cup           sugar

   2      Tbs           butter, melted 

   1      tsp           vanilla extract 

   2      cups          pecans plus additional halves for top of pie 

   1                    9" deep-dish pie crust 

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. 

2. Mix corn syrup, eggs, sugar, butter and vanilla using a spoon. Stir in 

pecans. Pour filling into pie crust. 

3. Bake on center rack of oven for 60 to 70 minutes (see tips for doneness, 

below). Cool for 2 hours on wire rack before serving. 

4. RECIPE TIPS: Pie is done when center reaches 200°F. Tap center surface of 

pie lightly - it should spring back when done. For easy clean up, spray pie 

pan with cooking spray before placing pie crust in pan. If pie crust is over 

browning, cover edges with foil. 

5. High Altitude Adjustments: Reduce sugar to 2/3 cup and increase butter to 

3 tablespoons. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F.
